Review: ROSEMARY’S BABY by Ira Levin

 

Rosemary's Baby (Rosemary's Baby, #1)Rosemary's Baby by Ira Levin
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Rosemary and Guy Woodhouse, an ordinary young couple, settle into a New York City apartment, unaware that the elderly neighbors and their bizarre group of friends have taken a disturbing interest in them. But by the time Rosemary discovers the horrifying truth, it may be far too late!

I read this one for horror research for my MFA, and this book is incredible. Horror set in an apartment block. It starts off slowly, with just a few hints that the neighbours aren’t quite what they seem. And it just gains momentum from then on, until we’re dealing with a creepy Satanic cult who steal Rosemary’s baby. It is SO creepy!
